In march 2018 was DISTASTEFUL to tell you about the golden bridge made in China, and that is going to be shipped to Stockholm by boat.
the Company that makes the China Railway Shanhiaguan, the Bridge Group, the same company that made the 5.5-mile-long bridge across the Hong kong-Zhuhai-Macau, the world’s longest bridge over water. Your creation will cost 198 million, and on August 24, 2020, the need to be in place by the Lock.
this set is a set of questions to several experts at the institute and at the Swedish environmental research institute on the carbon footprint as the manufacturing process, and this sea freight to the to make.
According to estimates by the environmental research institute IVL Swedish environmental research institute Swedish environmental research institute’s carbon footprint is extensive. It’s all about, at least 1,000 of carbon dioxide, which, according to the Aftonbladet newspaper is equivalent to the emissions generated off of 3,500 trips through Sweden in a medium-sized car, or to fly from london to New York is 3,000 times. The calculation refers only to the fraktandet of the bridge to the city of Stockholm. The return trip, as the ship needs to do, therefore, is not included.
Eva Rosman, director of communications for the Slussenprojektet, agree that the city may impose specific requirements on the manufacturing process or transport of the goods here, as this is a contracted service, and the nature of the claims would be anti-competitive.
” It does not mean, however, that we have not set a high requirement on the contractor to the Company. This applies to all parts of the Slussenprojektet. We believe that we have a transparent environmental performance, ” said Eva Wharton at the DN.
the three possible manufacturers of the bridge, before the agreement was signed: a Polish company, a German one, and this one is chinese. The Polish went out of business and the German did not have the capacity that is required.
It was, however, the chinese became part of the, which has 6,000 employees.
the Bridge is fabricated in a high-tech factory, it will have to be shipped here in a new made, new zealand, which in and of itself is an engineering marvel, ” says Jacob Birkeland, editor-in-chief of the contractor’s Company.
this is a ”cherished by its commitment to having such a small footprint on the environment as possible – while at the same time protecting the taxpayers ‘ money.
“We also have a will of their own accord, without any demand from the city of Stockholm, we have chosen to offset their emissions for the transportation,” says Jacob Birkeland.
in practice, this means that the Company will have to buy credits for the price of 100,000 dollars – which accounts for 1.216 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
” We also have a produktionskontrollanter on-site at the plant to follow the production and see to it that it is the correct when it comes to the choice of the material.
it is, according to Staffan Laestadius, professor in industrial development at KTH, in Stockholm, sweden, which has also spoken out in Aftonbladet, a ”questioning approach”.
” We have a lot of dramatic climate change. Carbon offsetting doesn’t reduce emissions now. Carbon offsetting should be done carefully and sensitively, and if there aren’t any other options, ” he told the newspaper.
Joakim Larsson (M), stadsbyggnadsborgarråd in the city of Stockholm and head of the politicians.
” It is, of course, is one of the largest construction projects in Sweden, is going to provide the impact on the climate is good, the debate about its impact on the climate are in place. What we are doing now needs to be several points of view – the bridge, for example, to keep the last 120 years, and no one other than the chinese, the company is able to produce, within the time frame that is needed, he says.
this is done by on-the-spot at the port of Zhongshan, in southern China, which means that there is no need to landstransporter there. The degree of transparency the Company has in place is enough to calm the stadsbyggnadsborgarrådet.
” I have every confidence that the Company has satisfied itself as to the environmental standards that we have set are being met. On the basis of what is reasonable, in order to get to the bridge at the time, I don’t think that there is a better solution, ” says Joakim Larsson.
